"The Power of 10: Rules for Developing Safety-Critical Code" standard by Gerald Holzmann
This standard was presented by Gerald Holzmann at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The rules are few in number so that developers are likely to remember them all. They are strict to improve the quality of the code, analysis results, and ultimately the program.
